Authentische mexikanische Tacos de Canasta: Weiche Weizentortillas, gefüllt mit cremig gewürztem Bohnenpüree, sanft gedämpft für ein unvergleichlich saftiges Streetfood-Erlebnis. Garniert mit marinierten roten Zwiebeln, frischem Koriander und Limette.
Preparation method
Prepare the savoury bean filling
Finely chop the yellow onion and garlic. Heat 1 tbsp of sunflower oil in a pan, and sauté the onion and garlic until translucent. Add the drained black beans, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Gently roast everything for 5 minutes. Mash the beans into a chunky, creamy purée (frijoles refritos) using a potato masher or a fork. If needed, add 2 to 3 tbsp of water to keep the filling smooth. Remove from the heat.
For the pickled onions, cut the red onion into thin rings, mix with the juice of one lime and a pinch of salt, and let sit for 10 minutes.
Chef's tip
Wrapping in baking paper and placing a kitchen towel under the pot lid mimics the traditional basket ("canasta") and prevents condensation from dripping onto the tacos.
Tacos de canasta taste wonderful with a fiery salsa verde or salsa roja as well as some sour cream.
